Return boxes in the Computing Centre

As of January 2017, the determination of the return box (in German: "Rückgabefächer") is created in a different way.

Systematology

The return box is no longer built up by the used account data with the pattern suabc123, but the billing code number.  Hierbei gilt für die meisten Fächer eine einfache Systematik: The name of the return box is created by the final digits of the billing code, whereby two number combinations share a box.

examples:

  • Box 45-46 is meant for final digits 45 and 46, thus for codes of this pattern: 145, 146, 245, 246, 345, 346 and so on
  • Box 77-78 is meant for final digits 77 and 78, and thus for codes of this pattern 177, 178, 277, 278, 377, 378 and so on

For some customers special return boxes intended, which are displayed after submitting the order.
